Vertical height growth mechanism of hydraulic fractures in laminated shale oil reservoirs based on 3D discrete lattice modeling

Abstract Bedding planes are abundant in shale oil reservoirs, but the intrinsic mechanism of fracture-height containment by these weak interfaces remains unclear. To investigate the effects of interface properties, stress conditions, and fracturing fluid viscosity on the vertical propagation of frac...
